Yup. As of today, in order of steepness: Blue Ox. Avanti. Pickaroon. Northwoods. Dealers. Born Free. Daily grooming report is your best bet to quickly find the goods. http://common.snow.com/groomingMap.asp?siteid=1 <img src="http://i42.tinypic.com/2daarll.jpg" border="0" alt="Copper RTTC"> Great conditions for carving. Bundle up and enjoy the empty slopes! Cheers, B-2

Hey Bobby,Fresh snow and New England-esque cold temps (18 below this morning) have produced midwinter chalk conditions, perfect for blasting high performance arcs. The pow and trees are pretty good, too. Look forward to a great session. <img src="http://i43.tinypic.com/2eyxoqp.jpg" border="0" alt="Thomas Palka, Vail, CO."> Hope to meet you for a few turns while you're in town. PM when you get here if you'd like to hook up. Cheers, B-2

Negative.The subject, Jeff Patterson, never stayed put long enough to paint in oil. We did the effect in post-production, using Photoshop. I'm having the same issue with this guy, too: <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QZ73IlvI2pc?list=UUnp7vZco7WlbxNaNEWCJv-g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> I need to hang with slower company. Or paint faster. Cheers, B-2

Yes, the bowls can offer good carving. Please keep in mind that the majority of the slopes in the Back Bowls are ungroomed and might be a bit more turbulent than you're looking for. You can find the groomed slopes in Back (and in Blue Sky Basin) using the daily grooming report. If you are here in March/April, also factor in daily freeze/thaw cycles, aspect, and elevation to identify and ride the very best conditions. Unless an epic powder day, Vail is a good mountain for a high performance carving setup. Coverage is good and if you ride with some level of accuracy a core shot is unlikely.<img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/348rmux.jpg" border="0" alt="Scott Firestone, Vail, CO."> PM when you're in town and I'm happy to meet with you to provide detailed local beta. Look forward to a sensational session! Cheers, B-2
